100 years ago, quantum physics was born to explain curious behaviour of tiny things. Since then, it has become our most powerful tool that humans possess, not just for increasing our understanding of the world, but for shaping its future. It has unlocked secrets of our universe, such as why stars shine and how migratory…

2025 Marie Curie Lectures – Your quantum future with Dr Sol H Jacobsen
The humble electron is a pillar of modern technology. They power almost every aspect of daily life, from your toaster to your phone. But these devices use only one quantum property of the electrons: their charge. Today, physicists are harnessing other properties – such as their “spin” – to advance a new technological revolution. This…
